Not Horrible, but here are some thoughts

- If the Blackhawks are going to consider taking Murray, Leafs will need to give up more picks or another prospect to get rid of Murray.

- Zadorov Trade, I think Calgary passes

- I think that Jarnkork is worth more than a third.

- I don't see CBJ taking brodie. It had a good return, but too expensive of a contract

I was going to say much the same about his choices: I would be happy with the end result, but the other teams' fans are not going to be on board with the trades.
And Jarnkrok doesn't seem worth giving up for a late pick to sign a Toews in questionable health.

Kudos for actually producing a 24-man roster, and not sneaking by with 20 to keep under the cap

Hawks decline. If all it took to move Murray was a 3rd, he wouldn't still be a Leaf.

Jackets decline. Getting a dman back for Peeke defeats the purpose of trading him.

Decent feedback from all!! Appreciate the different perspectives.

Hawks don't take on Matt Murray without a first attached to him. Maybe Murray and Knies for future considerations would get it done from Chicago's perspective. Doubt Toronto does that deal. They likely missed the boat on using Chicago to take on Murray's contract. Hawks have reached the cap floor, and their asking price to take on bad deals has skyrocketed since then. Toronto's likely only option is to buy him out when their next buyout window opens after Samsonov's arbitration hearing.
